Launching a new article type in Fennia: Data descriptions

Openness, transparency, and reproducibility are hallmarks of scientific methods as they ena-ble the peer-evaluation of the quality and accu-racy of research. In practice, however, most re-search carried out today cannot be reproduced or replicated by others and thus evaluated in detail. This is due to limitations in access to orig-inal data, vague or insufficient method descrip-tions or simply difficulties in accessing the pub-lications that describe the research work.
